Bleed Phantom

Bleed Phantom will be detailed in this blog post

Main Quest

Chapter 7: Those Who Oppose

Hiriendel conspires to seize Merca. The city of Merca is at its greatest crisis. Another opportunity arises for half-souls. After preparing a counterattack, will your cohorts make the first step in changing the fate of the world?

• Quest can be found at Priestess of Darkness: Mocha
• Location: Heart of Merca
• Prerequisites: Complete [Full Game] quest from Chapter 21: New Power
• Required Level: Lv 95

T/N: That’s very odd ordering of chapters…

Dark Mist Nest

Scenario

Rumors of a demonic tree began to spread.

What was that?

A murky and creepy sound came from the woods… the forest was dark and covered with fog. It was a mysterious natural object that appeared in a zone of neither day nor night. An adventurer will arrive to clean out the forest.

“The Tree of Life has fallen.”

Even though the tree is alive and well in Arundel, the life of Ferdeles is gone. The ghastly trees grow bigger and more disfigured.

The dark forest fog is clearly created by her. I look onwards at the dark clouds of mist that are spreading, awaiting a hero to stop her.

Guilin Festival

T/N Korea event. This flavor text part is purely Google Translated

The earnest earnest life: The beginning of the earnest festival

The plant was full of golden apple scent.

Now, only Mori inspiration is lonely.

“I do not have enough hands. The young people have all gone to the city. “

Morrie inspired me to look at an empty garden. Then, a long time later, the knee struck.

“Yes. Open the festival! “

Guilin Festival Mori inspired a huge festival and opened a festival! Rumor has it that a golden apple tree is a commodity … Please visit once and check it out!

How it Works

1. Go to Saint’s Haven Farm Manager Mory and buy a sealed box
2. Purchase seeds of target items from Farm Manager Mory
3. Grow and harvest items to craft target items!
4. When the target item is made, open a sealed box!
5. Acquisition step-by-step in a special library (current character only)

Progress Information

Rewards are given out at the completion of each of the 5 stages of the sealed box.

[Awakened Passive] Biochemical Experiment

Developer’s Comment

• We are planning to significantly reorganize Shooting Star’s skills because there is a problem with her current skill setup. After considering her performance, we decided to balance her damage first. Her Awakening presented issues with bullet consumption, and it was difficult to measure a skill’s value versus its bullet consumption. As such, skill rotations became harder and bullets were only used on Splash and Bullet Barrage. We have adjusted the damage and cooldown of her main skills, so skill rotations should be more intuitive now.

Gear Master

Chainsaw Quackum

• Damage increased from 2479% to 3930%.

Gigaton Quack

• Damage increased from 3672% to 8138%.

Kami-quackum EX

• Damage increase changed from 30% to 100%.

Class Mastery II

• Damage increase changed from 5% to 25%.

Mecha-Cannon

• Cooldown decreased from 45s to 30s.

[Awakened Passive] Mechanic Mode

• Action speed increase changed from 10% to 20%.

Developer’s Comment

• Like with Shooting Star, we are balancing Gear Master’s damage first. We have significantly increased the damage of Gigaton Quack due to the risks during charging and difficulty in attaining full hits. In addition, we have increased the action speed in [Awakened Passive] Mechanic Mode to reduce the delay after skills.
